As bulk handling equipment suppliers continue to make use of new and evolving technologies to develop 'smarter' conveyor systems, a leading global manufacturer, Martin Engineering, has introduced data tracking with QR codes on its belt cleaners and other components.

A new powered conveyor belt tracker from Martin Engineering delivers immediate and continuous precision adjustment of hard-to-track reversing conveyors, helping operators reduce spillage and extend the life of belts and other system components.

Martin Engineering has introduced a portable vibrator that activates the freeflow of bulk materials from closed-top hopper railcars. With one of the highest force-to-weight ratios available in the marketplace, the Martin IMP3 Impacting Railcar Vibrator delivers the power required to evacuate compacted bulk materials such as fertilisers, bentonite clay, Portland cement, grain and other agricultural products.

A state-of-the-art cement plant has resolved material accumulation issues in its limestone silo by combining high-efficiency cleaning techniques with powerful, strategically-placed air cannons to prevent further build-up.

Controlling dust, carryback and material accumulation is an essential element of bulk material handling by conveyor, as well as bulk storage. If accumulation gets bad enough in chutes and storage vessels, it can force unplanned system outages and cause major disruptions in production to clear blockages.

Martin Engineering, a global leader in bulk handling equipment, has introduced an innovative technology that uses the kinetic energy from a moving conveyor belt to generate enough power to run a wide variety of electronic systems.

A world leader in conveyor belt cleaning solutions has introduced a secondary cleaning system that removes nearly all of the carry back left on a belt, including adhesive materials and fines lodged in surface divots and valleys.

A global leader in bulk material handling technology has announced the introduction of its new Pin Latch Secondary Belt Cleaner, a tungsten carbide-tipped secondary cleaner that slides in and out for service without requiring any tools.

Bill Shukla, Managing Director-India of Martin Engineering Company Private Limited, speaks on how his company makes products that make the handling of bulk materials cleaner, safer and more productive.
